I never entered the Capitol on January 6th; I stood outside for eight minutes filming a video. I did not engage in or witness any violence or destruction. After posting the video, I was raided by the FBI and charged with felonies, eventually taking a misdemeanor plea deal. I question why some are upset about illegal immigration but not about the FBI raids on those who trespassed at the Capitol. Regarding my plea deal, I met with the DOJ as required, but the media misrepresented my situation. The documents revealed that none of the individuals I was questioned about were charged or convicted of any crime.

Most of the January 6th individuals I've interviewed, like you, were there because they believed in and wanted to uphold the system. Some did it imperfectly and things got out of hand. However, this particular person was intentionally there to degrade and defile the system. There was no valid reason for their actions in the hearing room.

I gave a speech outside the Capitol, assuming the building was mostly inactive due to the rally. I never considered entering, as the crowd couldn't force open the heavy doors. However, closed-circuit footage revealed the doors were opened from the inside. During my trial, the prosecutor misled the jury by showing a clip of a hand waving towards the door, claiming it was mine and portraying me as an aggressive mob member. This was deceptive, as I had worn black gloves all day, which the prosecutor was aware of.

An individual provided video footage purportedly showing two federal agents attacking the Capitol on January 6th. A defense attorney for the Oath Keepers filed a motion identifying 80 "suspicious actors" and "material witnesses" present at the Capitol on January 6th who have not been arrested or charged. These individuals were concentrated in areas where trouble occurred, including the East Side and the Columbus doors. The attorney alleges some worked in tactical two-man teams and were later seen on the terrace. He seeks to identify them using facial recognition and questions if the events were staged. A radio journalist captured footage of two individuals he believed to be government agents. One was encouraging people to enter the Capitol after a window had been broken, even pulling out a pane of glass himself. When he realized he was being filmed, he blamed a protester and shoved him. The other individual was holding open the Columbus doors with a wooden pole and pushing people inside. The journalist who shot the video said the man shoved him. One person claims that the FBI, not Trump supporters, led the insurrection at the Capitol on January 6th.

Speaker at the Circle Of Peace, 500 feet from the Capitol, states, 'I was not on restricted grounds.'

Speaker 1 argues that Jack Smith’s request to prevent evidence about security or intelligence failures before January 6 is unacceptable, claiming it would excuse Nancy Pelosi and the mayor of DC for failures. He asserts Pelosi was responsible for January 6 because she did not accept the security help offered, stating that 10,000 troops or National Guard were available if needed before the event, and that the event would have been different if 500 or 200 people had been used; he emphasizes that he offered 10,000 troops and that January 6 would not have happened with a larger deployment. He notes that he personally attended and gave a speech, and claims the audience included the largest number he has spoken to, contrasting with the smaller group that he says went down to the Capitol. Speaker 1 contends that the party should be allowed to introduce evidence showing that there were security and intelligence shortcomings, including the assertion that Pelosi “did not take the security that we offered her,” with the offer of 10,000 troops and the fact that “you had far fewer people than that.” He mentions that the unselect committee did not discuss or include references to “peacefully and patriotically” behaving crowds and says this group was not highlighted by the committee or in their words. He criticizes the prosecutor, calling Jack Smith a “deranged human being, unattractive both inside and out,” and accuses Smith of wanting to suppress testimony because the committee “illegally destroyed everything” and deleted evidence related to Pelosi’s decisions about troop deployment. He asserts that much evidence indicated Pelosi did not want the troops and that a letter from the mayor contradicted Pelosi’s stance. Speaker 0 acknowledges the point but keeps the dialogue focused; Speaker 0 reminds that Capitol Police Chief Steve Sun said January 6 was a preventable event if the intelligence and resources requested had been provided, noting that Speaker 0 sees this as an amazing point and confirms that the offer of troops was in writing. Speaker 1 reiterates that he offered 10,000 troops for January 6 and emphasizes that this fact is in writing, arguing that the prosecution is attempting to suppress relevant evidence. He maintains that Pelosi’s leadership and decisions about security are central to the discussion, and he reiterates the claim that the offer of security was not acted upon. The conversation pivots back to the assertion that the Capitol Police Chief’s past statements support the claim that January 6 was preventable with proper intelligence and resources.

Speaker 1 says he was on Constitutional Avenue. 'We went down first. There was four police officers, and some people entered. The gate was taken down, and the second gate was entered. And then went to the third gate.' He mentions 'There were anteaters with us' and notes they were aggressive with the police, 'throwing things, breaking things... hitting our own people.' He asserts they are not violent and do not hate the police department, and that the officers were on their side. From the top of the Capitol steps, he recalls 'thousands of papers behind it' and says it was 'an amazing sight' that made him emotional. He frames the action as symbolic after trying everything the right way, aiming to be visible and to make a point because 'the vote was stolen' and 'If our vote's stolen, what do we have left? A dictator.' He aided an injured man, 'Upper left. Cesar' who wasn't breathing. He suspects Antifa: 'I'm positive because that's how Antifa does things.'
